Yuletide fics

Ah, so now I get around to linking what I wrote for Yuletide, what I received, and a few recs.


She's The Man

She's The Man, Too - by ciaan - When you spend so long faking it, how do you know what you really want? Olivia/Viola. This was my official assignment.


Inspector Alan Grant series by Josephine Tey

After I read The Singing Sands I convinced Kat to read it, too, and we both prompted it for Yuletide last year and got nothing. This year we prompted it again, and there were results! \o/

His Paradise - by DTKokoro - Bill and Tad have a night together, but it's not gay because there's a woman.

Bill - by melodiousb - Bill is dead, probably, but this Grant guy is going to figure out what happened.

Loose End - by ciaan - Alan Grant stood in the cemetery, satisfied now that the last loose end in the Bill Kenrick affair had been tied up.

Yes, after reading other people's versions it really caused my version to gel more in my head, and I wrote a little ficlet based on Kat's prompt, and started making notes on The Epic Love Story Of Tad Cullen And Bill Kenrick. Except to write it I have to do ~research~ on the Depression and WWII and air freight companies and stuff. *sigh*


JONAS

Double-Oh Macy!!! - by ciaan - Macy is given her first secret agent assignment: stop Nick from destroying the world. But how can she beat anyone as cute as JONAS? Answer: easily. (Okay yes I admit it whatever stfu I really enjoy watching this show. And I already had thots on the various evil supervillain natures of Nick, Kevin, and Joe, so when I saw this prompt I had to do it.)


Leverage/White Collar crossovers

This was something I had been wanting and not finding, and then Yuletide provided, and now I just want more.

Accessories - by LithiumDoll - Neal calls in a REAL expert to look at his tracking anklet: Alec Hardison.

Yin and Yang - by therienne - Two stories, can be read in either order; the two teams get tangled up in each other's jobs. Oh oh oh.
the mountains rose up to the sky

Primeval, District 9, and omg bands clashing evil

While searching Google images the other day for Cobra Starship-related stuff I found THIS. Which is one of the most disconcertingly WRONG things ever. There is a woman trying to teach the Jonas Brothers how to do fangs up. (It is however also a perfect illustration of the different ways in which the various Jonas Brothers are evil. You will note that Kevin and Joe are not even trying but are just doing whatever dorky thing they want to. This is because they are evil like flaily mad scientists whose plots all go horribly wrong and Kevin ends up destroying the world while trying to do something to save the exotic woodland creatures he is besotted with, and Joe destroys the world while trying to, like, make breakfast in bed for his brothers or something. Then Nick is actually concentrating very hard on getting it right, because he is the one with the brains whose plans actually succeed and he uses his SOCIOPATHIC CHARM to conquer everything because he is more evil. (Although probably the extra littlest one is the most smartest and most evilest but hopefully the world is safe from him for a few more years.) DO NOT ASK WHY I ACTUALLY HAVE CONSIDERED THEORIES ON THE VARIOUS EVILS OF THE VARIOUS JONAS BROTHERS. I BLAME DISNEY.)

I also watched District 9 with Tristan this weekend and it was not as good as I had hoped. Trying to be non-spoilery: It looked like it could have had a unique and original version of alien first contact and some very interesting socio-political-philosophical musings on how humans treat other groups of humans, but instead it just mainly went in for gore and blowing shit up. Also I was very annoyed by the gendering of the aliens both in a scientific accuracy sense and in a "oh Hollywood why you so sexist" sense. Plus I'd just read some critic's list of the most entertaining movies of the summer, and they were all manly movies about mens, so yeah. Oh Hollywood why you suck so much and why I'm still so enamored of you?

I also just watched all of Primeval. And liked it. This was one of the fandoms I got for strangefandom, so though I had had people tell me it was good, all I knew about it was that it involved dinosaurs somehow. Then I watched killabeez's great vid All These Things That I've Done, and what I learned from the vid is that the characters are awesome and adorable, and there is a team, and people with deep feelings for each other, and some attractions and antagonisms mixed up, and (one of the most emotionally affecting SPOILERS in under five minutes ever, she really hit it in the vid) Collapse )

Anyone wanna talk about it?
